This video was uploaded when I was 8 years, I'm 23 now and have graduated from UNL. I go back to this video every year, and it never fails to give me chills and bring a tear to my eye. GBmfR
It's pathetic that you have to refer to the distance past. From 65 to 2000 (36 yrs), Neb was ranked #1 in the weekly AP poll, 70 times. From 2001 to 22 (22 yrs), Neb has been ranked #1, 0 times.
I'm from México and want to share this with Huskers fans: I have been a Cornhusker fan since the heartbreaking loss in1984, at that moment when Nebaska failed the 2-point conversion I became a lifetime Husker fan, simply because Osborne believed in his own way to play, it took until Janury 1995 to see them winning but it really was woth the time. Hope to see the Huskers winning again (sooner or later), meanwhile I will enjoy Nebraska football no matter what ... Cheers !
Loved seeing this ! great memories, I also wish the announcers today would have the same excitement as they did yesterday !!! they just chat with each other now days
I get tears watching this. Nebraska is the greatest team in college football. From the amazing fans to the way they play the game. Lee Corso couldnt have said it better. Go Big Red.
GBR!!! Thanks for the awesome memories and the ones to come in 94 I had tears running down my face that was such a long anticipated win for nebraska state wide!!!
I'm from Michigan but I feel a close kinship to Nebraska football. Most people simply don't realize how great they were. In particular the last five seasons of Tom Osbornes career. Total devastation. The 1995 Nebraska team is the greatest team college football has ever seen. Open and shut case. A record of 60-3 over five years will never be seen again. It all started with the man from Saginaw, Michigan, the great Bob Devaney. The Devaney and Osborne collaboration is the greatest in college football history. Unlike all the other great coaches before him, Devaney had his successor picked years in advance. Groomed and ready to fill in seamlessly. Devaney referred to Osborne as "The best hire I ever made." You think?! Osborne was the best hire anyone ever made. Sadly, this legendary program hasn't been the same since his departure.
Beyond the "Five Genuine" Not "Mythical National Championships" is a Legacy of Unrivaled Excellence in Collegiate Football History. Every College Superpower has had a down period in their history. Before Tom Osbornes retirement in 1997, Nebraskas record under Bob Devaney and Osborne was 356-69-7!! That is 36 years of UNAPPROACHED EXCELLENCE. No other program over such an extended period comes close. EVER!! After arriving in Lincoln in 1962, Bob Devaney tapped into the innate hunger of the Nebraska fan base. Galvanizing an entire state behind him. The loyalty to "The Big Red" was so unique that a homegrown Nebraska kid leaving for another program was tantamount to treason!! Devaney spun a magic with in state kids so powerful they would rather "Walk On" at Nebraska than go elsewhere. Devaney recruited brilliantly over areas of the country as well. Particularly, his home region of Michigan and the Midwest. His 1971 Nebraska team was beyond question College Footballs best team to that time. Perhaps ever. Unlike every other great coach in the country, Devaney ensured the programs continued excellence with his grooming of Tom Osborne as his successor. Knowing that Osborne was the perfect choice, Devaney never wavered when Doctor Tom struggled early against Oklahoma. Or his extended struggle in Bowl games, before the explosion over his final five seasons. The final tally of 60-3 and three National Championships from 93-97 will never be seen again. COMPETENCE, COMMITMENT AND UNWAVERING BELIEF. That is why Nebraska became the greatest dynasty college football will ever know. And the key to them gaining a semblance of that unequaled status again.
Wow, thanks for that insight. Now that you have set the Husker nation straight. We can back to cheering for our Basketball team, thanks. And so you know, whether they are good or bad, one thing you can know for sure Husker fans will still love the Huskers.
I literally had a tear in my eye watching this. It makes me proud to be a Husker fan. The best moment, IMO, is after Johnny Rodger's run at 1:52. Watch the Nebraska band member coming in from the left heading right. He's got a drum on. He's so filled with emotion that he just starts jumping all over the place and the drum is flopping around, the strap comes loose and it looks like it is going to fall. He's so happy that he doesn't even care his drum is getting trashed. That's what it's about!
Thats real football for any body who doesnt recognize the huskers as one of the best college football teams of all time if not the best. Gave me goosebumps through the entire thing. I went to the oklahoma game and you better beleive that we will be one hell of a football progams in the years to come
Great vid, shows the true passion and fire of Nebraska.........kind of makes me feel better after last season. Hopefully Bo Pelini can turn things around, i have confidence he will and the order will be restored, anyways great vid!!! GO BIG RED!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a friend who couldn't stand Nebraska - not for any valid reasons, of course - just because people love to hate winners. Anyway...I talked him up on our tradition and success, then showed him this video. He's sold. He doesn't love the Huskers, but he sure shows a healthy respect now when I talk college football with him.
I've got to say this. Husker fans are honestly the classiest of them all. I ran into quite a few of them at the SC game and they were great folks. We talked about politics, football, the economy. It was as if they were all my friends. I talked to a few folks who have gone back to Lincoln and they all said that it was the nicest of all the away games that they have attended. Oregon fans on the other hand are just plain jerks and I've heard nothing good about em...
I dearly, dearly miss the glory days cornhusker football but NEBRASKA WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT STILL STANDS AS THE BEST PROGRAM AND THE MOST DOMINANT PROGRAM IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL HISTORY
Ya think Corso is paid to appease viewers and if a lot of viewers watch, how happy are the advertisers. Corso in a drunken state would have ripped Neb more often than not.
My cousin from Tulsa played for the Sooners and I have a cousin from McAlester whose given name is Boomer. My grandfather was the first doctor in Muskogee. Still I was raised in Florence, NE and went to NU '73 and think they had an excellent all around program. A much cleaner program under Osborne who stuck his neck out for his players.
@nebchic actually being a kstate fan is the best experience in the world. When your other coach lost 3 games in one season you wanted his head... thats what fans do. but when bo palini goes 9 and 3 in one season he is the second coming of bar bryant. Being apart of ksu and being apart of the Big 12 confrence is the best, along with the best atmospheres in college football, or in all athletics for that matter. The purple nation is the best fans in the world with great atmosheres and facilities.
@fol2005 =P Yeah, KU one of the classy Big 12 schools! Very few of them and you guys were always good to play. I know it was usually just a scrimmage for us, but you guys always took it in stride!
great video, it shows the tradition at nebraska. ive always known texas fans to be arrogant (hookem1984) and im used to it since i live in texas. bo pelini is just going to have to make believers out of them by winning some games and turing this program around. GO BIG RED!
It's kinda weird how all the great programs are being restored at once in 2000s: Alabama, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, USC. Oh those teams, as a bama fan, I like Alabama and Nebraska the best. Alabama and Nebraska are similar in so many ways. You can't respect either program enough.
Lol I've seen Rudy countless times. Love the storyline and all that the movie portrays. I agree with you on respecting Notre Dame built up college football to where it is I have no agrument on that. See Nebraska is unique in the sense that we get amazing recruits into the heart of the midwest and have 83,000 + fans every game. Why not make it unique in our own way in every aspect. That song is not repersenting college football as a whole. If you heard the song you'd say oh yea! Rudy
@ACDC4life1 I think after the last 2 yrs and seeing alot of things that the big 12 started to become, it will be nice for us to join the big 10. It will be a good fit and the only thing that people will miss (dearly) is playing Oklahoma win or lose (epic ball) I have longed to play against the Buckeye's much respect for the way you guys play! looking forward to the nu vs osu matchup. We will bring some exciting football with us!!
It's crazy how so many people can hate our program so much. It's a game guys. Grow up. People can be proud of whatever team they want. Maybe you all are jealous that your fans do not have the same amount of pride in your own program like Nebraska enjoys. Quit being a bunch of haters, and start enjoying the freakin' game!!
@RockSmithStudio I was really pissed at first, but after thinking about it, I'm gald we are going. The Big 10 seems happy to have us, and so I'm glad we're joining. It'll be weird to have so many traditions gone, but hopefully new ones will be created very quickly!
If you didn't know, college football is ALL about tradition. That means the past. I'm pretty sure Oklahoma and Texas tout their past and tradition all the time. If it is the present you want, though, I don't think 13-12 in the Big 12 Title game is anything close to domination. And Nebraska is well on its way back into the spotlight and national title contention. The past reminds us that we can accomplish great things, and Nebraska has a great past.
i thought he needed to be replaced too until a lot of things were revealed that were legitimate hindrances to the offense. still, he needs to prove himself this year (and imo he didnt deserve the raise he got). the offense needs to be a force, or we will need to replace him.
@wintersnowstorm9 you're going to have some great rivalries such as Iowa, Ohio St., Penn State, etc. Right now the Big "12" looks like its just some teams and then Texas and Oklahoma now. So you guys won't be missing a lot. Nebraska is a perfect fit for the Big Ten.

I watch this video every year to kick off my football season..I cry every time! Its an awesome tribute to the Big Red!
The two greatest words in all of college football: "Touchdown Nebraska!"
Go Sooners, Go Seminoles, Go Longhorns, Go Canes probably all pulled rank when Osborne was there.
@@robjohnson8861 LOL
Other best college football words ever said Touchdown Johnny Rodgers
@@mas5867must be hard commenting yourself huh Robbie
I would love to see Nebraska and Alabama play...we owe Nebraska some payback from 1971...Nebraska is a great football program...Roll Tide!
Man I hope we get back to these days soon! I have a good feeling about this season!
Sorry man didn't want what happened but cheers to the future
Always next year!!!!
One of the greatest videos that I've ever seen.
Favorite program for some reason and I’m just some kid in Georgia raised by Georgia fans
Loved seeing this ! great memories, I also wish the announcers today would have the same excitement as they did yesterday !!! they just chat with each other now days
No it's called Beth Mowins and Sean McDonough.
I sent this out to all the BIG RED fans i know. Get's me pumped for Saturdays!!!!!
GO BIG RED!!!!!!! Fan since '77

It is on its way Here come the huskers!!
tyler1890 this year
tears well. emotions fly. only one NU to love.
wow those were the good old days
You know you are a Husker fan if you get goosebumps while watching this.
Lyle Bremser's call of Johnny Rodgers' epic punt return at 1:40 is all world.
Wow, thanks for that insight. Now that you have set the Husker nation straight. We can back to cheering for our Basketball team, thanks. And so you know, whether they are good or bad, one thing you can know for sure Husker fans will still love the Huskers.

GBR!!! I’ll never quit cheering for these guys!!!
GO BIG RED GO BIG RED GO BIG RED. and its an honor to be in the big ten it feels so right
That A&M game was fun. Nice stadium with loud fans, good college football down there.
I'm a Husker fan because my mom lived in Nebraska for a year or two and she said the fans there were CRAZY!!! (in a good way)
GBR!!
I just got chills five or six times no joke
i am an alabama fan and that video gave me chills
Great video.

I like the Rudy theme playing in the background. Welcome to the Big 10! GO BUCKS!
Why cant i stop watching this video?
I listend to Stevie Nicks - "Landslide" [Live In Chicago] over this and i cried because i saw most of that on the video that had color to it lol

You're not ready for the Big Ten. Nebraska just got slapped.
i thought he needed to be replaced too until a lot of things were revealed that were legitimate hindrances to the offense. still, he needs to prove himself this year (and imo he didnt deserve the raise he got). the offense needs to be a force, or we will need to replace him.
